Hi, Folks-
Jack Eichenbaum recently had a note from Tom Hibbard:
"You may remember me as showing up from time to time at the GISMO meetings. I had the pipe dream of creating a map of street parking for Manhattan and a couple times asked you for possible friendly contacts at the DOT (not too many when it comes to parking signs). Well, I have finished the first edition of the map and installed it (with some nifty layer controls) on a web site: parallelspaces.com. I hope you can take a look sometime.
Over the years I have dropped in on the GISMO meetings and always appreciated the spirit of cooperation and volunteerism there, and some of the contacts you have given me helped me in my very drawn out FOIL Requests, so I would be happy to share this map and its unusual symbols at a meeting some time."
Those of us working behind the scenes to get GISMO back in gear fully intend to invite Tom in as a speaker in the not too distant future.
In the meantime I want to share couple of links I'm sure many of you are already well aware of (I'm in "belts & suspenders" mode here): http://www.nycbigapps.com/ and the related site.... http://www.nyc.gov/html/datamine/html/data/data.shtml
All best to all of you & yours for the upcoming holidays. ~dorothy
